Step 1.
The first thing you need to do is to sign up for a free account at WealthyAffilaite.com, this will take approximately a minute to set up.
To do this: fill out your name, email address, choose a username and your password (be sure to remember your password).
After you have finished filling out the form, go ahead and click the green button which says: “Create your FREE account”.
Below you will see what the sign-up form will look like:
Step 2:
Within step 2, you will be directed to a welcome screen. For this tutorial on how to build a website free online, you may skip the tutorial although I suggest that you take a tour of what you will be doing within the platform in the near future.
On the next screen, go directly to the Site Rubix tab that will be located at the left of the screen. Hover over the Site Rubix tab to bring up the Site builder tool tab.
Go ahead and click on the Site Builder button.
To start building out your website for free online, click on the “A Free Website” button. Below that, you will get to choose the domain name of your website.
TOP TIP: Be sure to include words in your domain name that will relate to what you will be building your website about.
Eg. If you are building a website about basketball shoes, you may want to give your website a domain name like basketballshoes.com.
If the domain name is already taken, choose something that is closely related to basketballshoes.com
The next step would be for you to choose a name for your website. This name could be the same as your domain name or any other name of your choosing.
Next, you would choose how you want your website to look on the internet (theme). There are over 12 free themes to choose from, take a look around to see which theme suits you best.
The last step would be for you to click the button that says “I’m ready, build my website now!”
When you click on the “build my website now button”, the tools behind the scene will build out the website in under 30 seconds. Congratulations! Your new website is ready and waiting for you to get familiar with it.
Login To Your Website
The next screen will show you all your website details, which includes all your login information. By default, your username will be set to “admin”. You will be able to change it within your WordPress dashboard in the “Users” settings.
You will be provided with a secure password that you must keep safe always. You will also have the option of resetting your password if you have a need to do so.
Click on the “Domain Name” link to see how your website looks on the world wide web.
The “Administration Page” link is the same as the “Login Now” link page. They both take you to your WordPress dashboard.
Within your WordPress dashboard, you will be able to create content and personalize your website just the way you want it to be.
That is how you create your free website online. I have been using this same tool to build all my websites, including this very same one.
Need More Help?
Do you need more help? If you do, there is no need to worry. You will be provided with all the help and support within the same Wealthy Affiliate platform that you signed up to earlier.
The next place that I would recommend that you go to is the green Getting Started tab, which is located two steps above the Site Rubix website builder tab, which you should be quite familiar with.

Hey Jason,
I think a lot of people are intimidated by setting up a website. But, really it’s quite easy with SiteRubix at Wealthy Affiliate. A lot of people are actually surprised to learn that you can host websites with Wealthy Affiliate too. There are lots of services that provide just hosting for 5$ to $25 per month. But, Wealthy Affiliate offers so much more than just web hosting!
More importantly, I talk with clients all the time and they want to focus on traffic but are unsure how to actually get targeted traffic. I explain the process of SEO and it really overwhelms them.
I did have a question for you, though. What WordPress themes both free and paid do you suggest for newbies. I have used a number of paid themes in the past; Headway, Genesis, and Elegant Themes.
You are quite right about people getting intimidated by setting up a website. That is how I felt before I started building websites back in 2014.
I have learned that with Wealthy Affiliate, the process is quite simplified, it literally took 30 seconds to build my website with the SiteRubix website builder tool.
I really think that Wealthy Affiliate has all the tools, training, and support that is needed to build a successful online business and I am proof that it truly works.
Regarding my recommendations for WordPress themes to newbies, I would say that this particular theme that I am using is quite good; it is called the Pagelines theme.
They have it in free (this one) and also paid, which I will be upgrading to pretty soon.
Other great premium themes that seem to get some really positive reviews are the Thrive Themes and the Woo Themes.
I would recommend that a total newbie start with a free theme then move on to a premium one once they get the hang of it.
